Maureen says: "It was an honour to paint Anna. Talking to her (virtually) gave me a small insight into the vital and valuable work she and her fellow keyworkers undertook for the rest of us during this incredibly intense time. I look forward to meeting Anna in the real world at the first opportunity."
Anna says: "Delighted to have been part of this creative and unique initiative, which gave me the opportunity to meet Maureen (virtually!), find out more about Maureen's work and share some of my experiences of working in the NHS during the pandemic. I now have a portrait which I will treasure forever and remind me of this unprecedented time and the kindness expressed by artists to support NHS staff."
